By the way, you can buy a fifteen foot water pond hose at HD or Lowes and it is perfect for a macerator hose. I replaced my original hose with one of them and used it for five more years. They cost less than twenty bucks and if you have problems on the road, offer a quick and easy solution to replace the hose. I carry a couple of 1" PVC flexible pipe connections with me, which allow me to cut and splice the macerator hose in case of a problem on a trip.
